Your Song - The Streets

[happiehtoast]

I like this version, because this isn't really Mike's typical music, so kudos for trying.

[russelllandsbrooks]

Video is genius!!!!!!!! 

[jizzumonkey]

@russelllandsbrooks

What can i say, i have a talent ;)

[LemonTree9280]

Who cares about a reason for liking this. if it speaks to you its all good. kermit and bill murray would agree

[trooperJac]

Take an average record that people remember fondly then remove all trace of artistry and soul from it and this what you get. If you think this wank has any kind of merit at all then you don't know what music is.

I still believe Skinner will own up one day and admit he was just taking the piss all along!

[scottydot80]

@trooperJac you your a complete bellend all the way you fucking opinionated prick. skinner is a geneus end of and if zane lowe thinks it like i do thats enough.

[sfchenz]

This is the best cover of this song, and miles better than the original. How is this song taking the piss? It was recorded very seriously for Radio 1 to go on their album to mark the anniversary of the live lounge. The only thing taking the piss is the stupid video created by the uploader.

[MrDevo1980]

cock horror

[AddictedAcoustic]

This is miles better than Ellie Goulding's crappy cover.

[PickeringMadEds]

Only skinner could pull off a song like 'your song' by not really singing at all

[Ldowney83]

Funniest cover ive ever heard in my fucking life!!! Had me weak to be fair :')

[Frankelfinkel]

this shit is f-in great!

[bazza667]

I'm sorry, but if Elton John were dead, he'd be turning in his grave. This is just terrible. I have nothing against Mike Skinner or the Streets, but this song doesn't suit his vocal style at all.

[booshbuy]

@bazza667 i dont think it meant to be serious really

[sfchenz]

@booshbuy yes it was

[scottydot80]

@bazza667 good job you ent a music producer then or the charts would be full of dreary bollox fucking idiot, and elton is clearly still alive so you could just ask him how he feels divy.

[kbyer]

I'm sorry i dont care if your a fan or not. This is nonsense, but he has made it work somehow.

[jizzumonkey]

Yeh, kermit likes a bit of the green stuff ;)

[jooooooej]

Lovin the kermit skinning up and sparking up. Did not expect the bit with kermit swimming in the bud, it made this video 10x better after seeing that

[misspops1987]

i love your kermit skills :)

[willym92]

Just played this in sync with Elton on ITV. Such a weird sound.

[iareanonymous]

You hear people bang on about emotion in songs when it's about people who hit notes that only dolphins can hear and call that emotion but this is emotion and realness. This is how you'd sing a love song to your bird. Give me this over some X-Factor On Ice With The Stars cunt warbling any day of the week.

[jamesarongray]

fuck that frog off it's distracting

[kylewismith]

the fact that he cant really cant sing is what makes it so good makes it feel more genuine and heart felt!!! brilliant cover

[rhysninetyeightynine]

Absoloutely love the streets. Better when he sings about pulling, drugs, nights out etc. but its okay

[hildedekeyser]

This is the very best song ever for me, mike skinners version is just perfect!

[hesteskum]

he´s not that good a singer.. but there is something about this song.. its like wow

[bumblemad]

I LOVE THIS!!

[thispagesux]

lmao, i just saw this on the yahoo list of worst ever covers. mike.....stick to talking bollox over some urban street music and leave the classics alone. your cant cover a song when your tone deaf and unable to sing! elton john would scoop out his ear drums with a spoon if he ever heard this nauseating din!

[cartesiaLive]

@thispagesux at least he gives it an honest shot with some actual human character.. youd be hard pressed to find any recent cover of it that wasnt just autotuned to shit

[jackdoe83]

his is suppose to be sung... not spoken?

[chrisbristol]

kills this song with fire!!!

[jizzumonkey]

@chrisbristol flames of death?

[jonathonuk]

Me and the wife had this version of this song as our main dance song at our wedding! We just like how quirky it is... the way its spoken almost, as opposed to sung. It was just like we were saying the words to each other. One of the best moments of my life! I know some folks don't like it - that;s their right of opinion, I guess. But I think it's a really clever and original twist on the original.

[jizzumonkey]

@jonathonuk If it holds a special place in your heart then thats all that matters. I didnt upload it to be controversial or have a dig at anyone .. Some people have taken it a tad too serious !!!

Glad it works for u :)

[0megacloud]

@jonathonuk Good on you mate, I like how raw it is. If I had the talent to write and sing a song for my girl it would sound the same, we can't all pretend to have fairytale voices and looks but it dosen't mean it;s any less heartfelt.

Congratulations on the marriage as well.

[MrAaranhewitt]

@jonathonuk well done i think the same pal. As its spoken it takes all the glits and glam out the song and identifys the meaning behind the song

[GauntV]

@jonathonuk

haha thats wicked! i have no idea who you are but im strangely proud of you haha

[RenegadesTV]

So much emotion in his voice, an amazing cover. He did the song justice

[dianasaurusk83]

no no no he sounds like that one guy on mighty boosh!

[Crookmeisteren]

have u ever herd kermit the frog?

[fireuk]

frigging brill

[fozzuk]

goldielookinjohn , couldnt agree more lol ...cept chris moyles aint seen his dick for years haha ;o)

[treviddick]

This is a brilliant and very heart felt cover, why criticise it?

Its meant to be about an honest john, not a talented singer , singing a song to his loved one.

Skinner does it more than juctice

[OllieeWraay]

he sounds most like kermit when he says "how wonderful life is, when your in the world" :L

[cathkin33]

you can tell a timeless song when a clown like this tries to take the piss and it still sounds good .....

[greenguy9871]

how dou no he was tryin take the piss nd dis song is shit the original aswell

[SpartanGraffiti]

haha thats funny

[warper22]

made me cry ... lovely

[waldorfsfavorit]

Kermit 4 sure he Öz it 4 real

[ForzaItalia33]

kermit's a g

[harry1hatter]

i guess kermit

[Leeroythegreat]

I see what you're getting at with the Kermit thing. They way he stops and starts. :D

[jizzumonkey]

Yes, some ppl take this video malarkey ever so serious..

P.S I did ya mother ;)

[Leeroythegreat]

I am greatly offended and wish to accuse you of homosexuality or alternatively, accuse you of being a bundle of sticks.

[jizzumonkey]

Homosexuality a bundle of sticks its all the same to me ! :P

[tonyblairinmybed]

love u skinner and love this version not much talent left in the uk anymore but you have it

[aaronmaddock1]

love it...

[Anththefuture]

so we are comparing mike skinner to kermit the frog? kermit the from is a piece of material that gets a hand stuck in it occasionally. mike skinner is a wonderful song writer and a bloody decent bloke. dont see any comparison at all.

[vin326]

I like the British accent in this song. It feels so real ,so touching!

[Qwertymon]

The orginal is by a english artist.....

[Sam080392]

this is one of the only streets songs i dislike, it's really bad.

[ps0u1159]

Well technically it's an Elton John song, and not exactly Mike's forté. I imagine it was quite difficult for him.

[pkrshark123]

it was done in the radio one live lounge, he didn't have much choice in what he sang!

[ihatefranceandameric]

the artists pick the songs

[MrPayt]

one of his best

[porckchops1]

i just like that is basic what mike has done

[camzdotman]

kurmets one of my best customers

[goldielookinjohn]

chris moyles is a fat useless twat. what does he put out... fuck all. his radio 'show' is just him sucking his own dick every morning.

[spondoncrew]

hahaha go on haha

[Latipsify]

@goldielookinjohn

I like Chris :)

[russelllandsbrooks]

@goldielookinjohn Ya KNOW!!!!!!!

[RSJuggo3]

yes its true, hes not a very good singer.. but.. pepole love him for the emotion yes.. for us males from the uk.. thats what we look like and we just go to the pub with our "mates" that we cant really talk to at all.. and he shows all this emotion that us males in the UK cant express to others.

[Phished123]

Its true Mike's not much of a singer..but theres still so much emotion in the song..it makes up for the lack of singing ability...

i've heard him do a lot worse...

[tomuk1984]

This is absolutely awful!

[Zebbadi]

ROFLZ AT 0:37

[jizzumonkey]

TY, glad u appreciate all the thought that went into it ;)

[glen432]

chris moyles is a dick

[killakiaba]

yeh but he is still a Funny Dick lol

[Piercedpixie56]

Hrrmm...i quite fancy this tune, thanks for posting it :)

[jizzumonkey]

A nice normal comment lol

Thank u 4 listening x

[mabyeoneday]

ha!!  :DD <3

[winkytinky]

to each their own***

[ShortyPinkGirl]

ii likeed it and soo what if its not kermit the frog its still a good vid (Y)

[Evo4real]

Sounds nothing like kermit the frog :/ fucking retard

[jizzumonkey]

Always good to get intelligent feedback .. shame u never left any ..

[Evo4real]

If it was a good clip, i would leave intelligent feedback. This is not a good clip.

[jizzumonkey]

Still a shame u had to resort to bad language and name calling .. never mind each to their own. Have a nice day :)

[MrJBradshaw]

Thank you for posting this matee :)

[goldielookinjohn]

there is no bad language. if that is the language people express their views best in and it gets the point across surely that is great language? like if i called chris moyles a stapler... bad language... because what does that mean! if i called him a twat youd know. :)

[stackingpain]

I think you were intelligent enough to notice that he truly doesn't sound like kermit. Maybe we should write an intelligent letter to Muppets Holding Company, LLC letting know about this vid. I hope jizz monkey was intelligent enough to get the rights for the content in this video... hrm

[Tango1610]

sounds like a spastic on a kareoke machine

[RichardAcer]

shithead

[streetsFan08]

put some of you doing it then mate and then we'll give you some feedback.

cus i bet hes better than you

[donny1266]

Awesome cover!

[lfceleven]

This is a direct hit on the emotional scoreboard. It is the way he gives the lyrics the sound of discovery. It is new and refreshing. Thanks for the bold move.

[streetsFan08]

i bloody love skinner and this is so more emotional than eltons version

and why are you dickeds that hate skinner listening to this song if you hate him

get a life and a better music taste dickedsss

[snypaboi92]

[hugmetight22]

[Julinalein]

[shwinlow]

[AgentMartino47xD]

[superfardin]

something makes me love this song. crazy

[sprouticuz]

agreed bt no matter how much emotion it dont make up for him spoilin an ace elton tune

[originalbunglist]

it was done for a radio one special. lets be honest, mike skinner aint known for his singing talents but is for his lyrics. i think this was a live lounge, at least he dint attempt some mariah carey stuff!!!

[xtcofbass89]

it's not about singing it propperly, but to put emotion in it... and I he achieved that all the way :)

I love this version (:

[sprouticuz]

the streets are quality bt skinners murdered this song, a cant believe he even attempted it , eltons version all the way!

[Fraaip]

he might not have the best voice but fuck it's cool and I love it.

[feetzee919]

This is the best Elton John "Your Song" I've ever heard!

[johnotrfc90]

the frogs clearly a joke, skinner is a legend and dont u forget it, class live!

[20JoeDoyle07]

sounds nothing like kermit the frog

[DeadCrabProduction]

[ross44lapham]

He's just talking it's complete shit, council estate scum, and boy do they sound like it! Good piss take and good banter!

[glosairtourer]

[kaiserwilhelm23]

[streetsFan08]

He's a legend and your a twat mate, he has a better voice then you i bet, so you and kermet the frog can shove off

[jizzumonkey]

You should take it as it was intended .. tongue in cheek ... :)

[apollo112]

[Marcus2162]

[BhoyRabbit]

The Irony of it all...Is lost on your audience ,,,Skinner is a pwick full stop...shine yer shoes,oi oi cockney muppet.

[tonymontanascarface0]

[BhoyRabbit]

[dianahaley]
